Modestly priced bookshelf speakers for cabin.
I have built two systems for my girlfriend based on Spica TC-50s. A pair (used, of course) is available on Ebay for 300usd. You will need a decent pair of stands. But they were and continue to be remarkable speakers.  
Best bookshelf speakers
@cd318I have three pairs of speakers. Rogers LS3/5a in one bedroom (15ohm versions). Celestion SL700 in my master bedroom. And Zu Def4 in my living room. All three are great. I understand your concern that the drivers in the LS3/5a have never been... 
Best bookshelf speakers
People are still talking about and recommending LS3/5a speakers 40+ years later. Says a lot.

Zu def 4 are they the best speaker made?
Have you ever visited DejaVu Audio in the Washington DC area? Most of the staff are young and approachable. It is my favorite audio store. Sean delivered and set up my Def 4s personally. I have not moved them from where he positioned them. And if ... 
Zu def 4 are they the best speaker made?
Oh. And I hope that I have more than a “handful” of years to live.  
Best place to sell high end audio equipment?

Capital Audio Fest 2018--show report
I always like the DejaVu audio room. Both the modern and the vintage equipment. This was my first experience with the Harbeth 40.2, and I was impressed. Vu and his colleagues always do a good job. And if you are in the DC area, you should visit th... 
Zu def 4 are they the best speaker made?
I have Zu Def 4s and like them a lot. I visit Zu rooms (ie, at last weekend's CAF) both to say hello to Sean and his colleagues (who are invariably customer friendly) as well as to collect "new music" - or at least music that is new to me. It is a... 
Best speakers for $300/pr
Get a pair of Spica TC-50s.  
Log Home / Listening Room design
How totally cool. (And I suspect most of us would be jealous.) That said, I would opt for the “log home” route and involve someone knowledgeable in the design and construction.  
In search for speakers of "natural" sound
As "faxer"implies, it is always ideal to hear a speaker "at home" - if at all possible. The more money that you plan to spend, the more a dealer should be willing to accommodate this request. 
Recommendations for a few high SQ classical CDs
One very inexpensive approach - especially for someone who wants a variety of works - is to buy one of the Mercury Living Presence CD box sets. They were great performances lovingly recorded and produced. The box sets are an unbeatable bargain. In... 
Linn question..
Depending on the cost, etc, you can get speaker wires made with twin banana plugs at one (speaker) end and a single banana plug at the other (amplifier) end. I did this for Celestion SL700 and Rogers LS35a
